SAY IT ISN'T SO // ON THE ROAD AGAIN



Last Tuesday night was the Scottish Album of the Year (SAY) Awards ceremony. We all got suited, booted and frocked as it was a rather civilised affair.

Although we didn't win in the end (it's the taking part that counts innit), it was a real genuine privilege to have our album "The Quickening" on the short-list.

Massive congratulations to both Aidan Moffat and Bill Wells for bagging the prize, it couldn't have gone to two more deserving guys, and also a HUGE HUGE thank you to everybody involved in organising what has been a excellent as well as truly valid celebration of what Scottish music can offer, as well as what for us was an absolutely fantastic experience!

Meanwhile, we're on the road again...

It's a West Coast Thing

We are extremely happy to announce that we will be playing at The Oran Mor on the closing night of the West End festival. From a stolen sea have put together an incredible line-up, including Aidan Moffat and Bill Wells, RM Hubbert, We Were Promised Jetpacks, Miaoux Miaoux, Wounded Knee and even more, playing across the entire Oran Mor building.

What's more, the entire event will be presented in 5.1 surround sound.

This all takes place on Sunday the 24th of June.

To cap it all off, the Oran Mor is actually the church spire seen on the cover of The Quickening, for fans of useless facts.

It's going to be a very special day indeed!

"THE MIXENING" || UK TOUR WITH ERRORS

We're happy to announce that we have a new release appearing very soon! We've had our entire album “The Quickening” remixed by a host of talented bizzums, the release is entitled, naturally, “The Mixening”.

It's a real privilege to have had such talents re-work our music and stamp their own individuality on the tracks, from the more beat-driven versions of “John Candy” and “One Happier” by Ben Butler & Mousepad and grnr respectively, to the spaghetti western shuffle incorporated into “Hey Zeus, courtesy of FOUND and the foreboding industrial pulse of The Twilight Sad's take on “White Castle”, not to mention the ambient washes of Enoch Point's “Scottish Widows” remix and Dam Mantle's pulsing, hypnotic overhaul of “Ocean Potion”.

Download a preview of the album HERE; a stunning version of “Unclean Powers”, remixed to dizzying effect by The Phantom Band.

You can pick up copy of “The Mixening” ahead of it's official March release when we go out on tour around the UK next week with our friends and label-mates Errors (whose new album “Have Some Faith In Magic” is their best yet and very likely the best thing you'll hear all year):
